The turnover rate is very high, so you’re constantly meeting new colleagues.
1. Long working hours, often working full-day shifts continuously
2. A shortage is deducted every month; even system errors are charged to you
3. You may be assigned to work in other counties or cities, but taxi fares cannot be claimed as transportation expenses
4. You sell all kinds of miscellaneous goods, and are also required to sell children’s clothing—it’s no longer a bag shop
5. The supervisor has poor emotional management, repeatedly changes their mind about work instructions, and basically toys with the store staff
No advantages
The company's systems are outdated, and its thinking is old-fashioned. The boss's emotional management is extremely, extremely, extremely poor, constantly cursing your ancestors for eight generations and engaging in workplace bullying. To conceal the inferiority complex caused by their poor leadership, they can only criticize employees as completely worthless to display their own superiority. Every day they yell and scream in the office, blaming employees for doing everything badly and making them angry every day. There is an extreme lack of efficiency and security: they distrust every decision made by employees, make wrong decisions themselves, and in the end still blame employees for not explaining things clearly. Discussions take at least two hours, involving lengthy, irrelevant speeches that waste employees' time but still reach no conclusion. And by “discussion,” this means only they get to speak—you cannot get a word in. No matter how much you do or how hard you work, as long as they are in a bad mood, they think everything you have done is worthless. Employees are afraid of being cursed out, so they push away anything they can, making everyone very indifferent; mutual assistance will not happen here. Whenever the boss is in the office, it is completely silent. For a simple matter, you have to ask five different people before getting an answer. Don't expect to learn anything here, because no one will teach you anything. Every month, more people leave than join, and vacancies can never be filled. New hires do not even last a week at the company. With a company like this, are you sure you still want to come?
1. The work provides more opportunities to interact directly with senior executives and the boss, making it easier for your opinions to be heard.
The pressure is relatively greater, but there are many learning opportunities.
2. There is no excessive red tape or bothersome administrative procedures.
3. You can learn comprehensively and often take on multiple roles, making it easy to develop a wide range of skills and enhance your competitiveness.
4. Interpersonal relationships are straightforward. There are no workplace factions or cliques, and no bothersome environment of workplace intrigue and infighting.
1. The company trip hasn't been held for a long time... 😂😂
Follows the Labor Standards Act
Room for development
Employee purchase discounts
None
1. Colleagues generally do not engage in much office politics, so the environment is relatively straightforward.
2. It is not the kind of workplace where a supervisor sits behind you and watches your every move. (However, you need to know how to report your work progress to your supervisor; otherwise, they may not know what you are doing.)
3. Holidays follow the public-sector calendar, working hours are punctual, and overtime can be claimed for overtime pay. (However, there is rarely overtime at headquarters.)
4. Annual leave is provided in accordance with the law, and an allowance is provided for unused leave.
5. The headquarters office is conveniently located for transportation.
6. Employee-purchase discounts are very generous, and free employee-benefit products are sometimes provided.
1. There are only holiday bonuses and gifts for the two major holidays (the Mid-Autumn Festival and year-end).
2. Store salaries are relatively basic, so you need to rely on yourself to drive sales performance and earn competition bonuses.
3. You have to queue for the elevators in the headquarters office building during peak hours.
Actually, for southern Taiwan, it is a company that complies quite well with the Labor Standards Act.
1. Labor and health insurance are provided as soon as you join the company.
2. Salaries are only ever paid "early" and are never delayed.
3. Maternity leave, parental leave, and annual leave are all provided to employees as required.
The elevators and air conditioning break down extremely often.
1、Convenient transportation
2、Normal working hours
3、A lot of room for development
Taking out the garbage is inconvenient; it has to be carried from the 20th floor down to the 1st floor
No reports to write and no endless classes to attend; it feels like there are far fewer miscellaneous tasks than at VF Corporation.
The company is relatively understaffed, so there may be more full shifts. You can only schedule four days of work yourself; unless you have something going on, you need to tell your supervisor in advance, or arrange a shift swap with someone else after the schedule has been posted.
The anonymous reviews online aren’t very positive. I roughly know why: under the performance bonus system, only the amount exceeding the target can earn the 1% bonus, which is basically equivalent to nothing. Unless it exceeds the guaranteed bonus of 1,800, the bonus is based on 1,800. Overtime is paid, so the reason the salary exceeds 30,000 is because of overtime pay.
However, there are no reports to write and no endless classes to attend, and it feels like there are far fewer miscellaneous tasks than at VF. I can accept a lower salary, but I absolutely can’t accept having lots of work to do, so those hoping to earn performance bonuses may want to think it over.
Dear online friends and job seekers,
A company’s operations depend on setting goals, outlining a vision, and seeking partners who share the same aspirations. Those who serve as business owners must have a clear direction, take responsibility, and remain focused and committed. Those who serve as managers must know how to make use of resources and place importance on collaboration and the division of responsibilities. As employees, we should cultivate a good attitude and strive to learn and grow.
The operation of any company must go through the hardships of its early entrepreneurial stage, followed by growth and development, and may also encounter difficulties and setbacks. When circumstances are favorable, everything may proceed smoothly; but when adversity arrives, the company may also face environmental changes such as the recent pandemic. A company’s owner is much like the captain of a ship: their responsibility is to take care of every person on board. In addition to keeping the ship on course and moving toward its goals, if a disaster like the Titanic occurs, they will also be the last person to leave the ship.
Many opinions expressed online may be true, but they may also be exaggerated or false. Out of respect for freedom of speech, we calmly accept even negative comments and humbly reflect on them. However, when faced with exaggerated and untrue accusations, could our repeated tolerance also affect how everyone views us?
To be honest, everyone may encounter circumstances in which they leave a job. Some people complete a thorough handover and part on good terms, while others go through the motions and even make vague accusations anonymously afterward. Perhaps everyone knows that criticizing a former company during an interview is a major taboo for job seekers. Perhaps this is why some people direct their dissatisfaction toward these anonymous online platforms that see themselves as upholders of justice. In fact, no platform operator can verify the truthfulness of all content. Inadequate review processes allow users to anonymously make accusations naming their former companies.
You can imagine a person who leaves a company and blames every problem on it. Is that truly fair? Sometimes problems arise from many different perspectives, and poor communication can make them increasingly serious. Shouldn’t learning how to “manage upward” also be something every job seeker should take seriously? Do you have to wait until you become a manager yourself before you can understand this? People who only ever complain and do not know how to put themselves in others’ shoes will probably also find it difficult to become managers.
Finally, I would like to remind you that statements online can be true or false, so you still need to make a careful and informed judgment. Sometimes, believing certain biased statements may cause you to miss a career path that would have been suitable for you.
The above is provided for everyone’s consideration.
No judgment is made regarding the pros and cons; the content is provided for everyone’s consideration.
Applied for a retail counter staff position
The interviewer was friendly and clearly explained the policies and whether I could accept them
It felt like they emphasized the difficult parts, as if hoping people would quickly run away
At the beginning, I had to fill out their company’s own résumé form
I left some sensitive questions unanswered
I also did not check the box regarding liability for inventory losses
The salary is NT$26,000, which becomes NT$25,000 after deductions for labor and health insurance, weddings, funerals, and so on
There is also a group bonus added on top (but any inventory loss will be deducted from the bonus)
You may also have to work full-day shifts while standing at the counter alone
It sounds extremely exploitative
Absolutely no advantages 👍🏻
The company’s policies are really awful. The systems are outdated, the workload is distributed unevenly, and the manager has serious issues with emotional control. I wanted to resign after only two months. Under the Labor Standards Act, employees who have worked for less than three months are not required to give notice, but I still informed them early, before the end of the month. Instead, my manager sarcastically told me not to make things so difficult, so I cooperated with them for another two weeks.
After I submitted my resignation, they started targeting me at every turn. Thanks for nothing.
None at all
Don't work in the logistics department under any circumstances; people come to work just to gossip and bully others.
The hard work is secondary—the workplace pressure is so intense that it makes you question your life.
It's easy to be disliked and easy to be bullied, especially in a certain department.
When the supervisor makes announcements, they speak with exceptionally poor taste; you have no idea what they're even here for.
Unless you're really short of money, you'd be better off working at a convenience store than coming here.
Run while you can
Everything required by the Labor Standards Act is provided; the company’s policies are fine.
Colleagues appear to get along harmoniously on the surface but try to attack one another behind the scenes. Management tends to be rigid and formulaic, and the instructions they give are unclear and difficult to understand.
None
Everything went smoothly during the interview, and the schedule and job duties were also workable. Ms. Chiu, who interviewed me, even arranged an approximate time with me for a trial shift, and then said at the end that she would call me again after confirming. As a result, I heard nothing for an entire half month.
Although I already felt two days later that I probably hadn't gotten the job, the more I thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed. If there was no opportunity from the start, then they shouldn't have arranged an approximate trial-shift time with the interviewee. Do they think everyone looking for a job has nothing better to do?
(I interviewed at a department store in Kaohsiung.)
No advantages, no advantages, no advantages, no advantages, no advantages, no advantages!!!
1. The system is extremely terrible. No matter how much it is improved, it is always the same. We often do useless work, and the system frequently crashes halfway through, which is extremely frustrating!
2. The boss's emotional management is extremely poor—so poor that it's practically at a pro level. It really deserves to be praised, haha!!!
At any time and anywhere, they curse your ancestors going back eighteen generations, angrily roar and slam the desk—there are all kinds of noises, and you can hear them almost every day!
3. Discussing matters always takes more than two hours. The boss blames employees for their own wrong decisions; no matter what goes wrong, it is always the employees' fault.
What is supposedly a discussion consists entirely of the boss talking. Employees cannot get a word in. Is this supposed to be discussing a problem???
Spending so much time discussing problems ultimately results in nothing but a bunch of nonsense, with no substantive solution at all. If you are discussing a "system" problem, you should be mentally prepared to sit across from the boss and listen to them lecture you on how to write programs, how to test systems, and how long it took them to write the system back then... blah blah blah—it's all self-congratulatory talk!
4. When you want to seek a better job and submit your resignation, you will be mocked with comments like, "When you couldn't find a job back then, the company happened to see you and hired you, giving you a job so you wouldn't have to bear the financial burden of still being unemployed." This is simply moral coercion!!
After mocking you, they will then say that as long as you find a better job, the company is very willing to let you leave. What kind of nonsense is that??? Is this the concept of slapping you in the face first and then patting you on the head??
Holidays are normally observed.
Poor management of personal emotions, often resorting to sarcastic remarks to promote what they want to advocate.
Different departments do things inconsistently and are very good at shifting blame onto one another.
When others make mistakes, it is treated as if they have committed a grave offense; when they make mistakes themselves, they are the first to evade responsibility.
In particular, do not join the warehouse department.
This place is only suitable as a stepping stone; if you have another, better opportunity, switch as soon as possible.
Colleagues are selfish, and on top of that, greedy.
Regular holidays off
Poor management of subjective emotions; often uses sarcastic remarks to promote what they want to advocate.

When others make mistakes, it is treated like a serious crime; when they make mistakes themselves, they are the first to escape responsibility.
Especially the warehouse department—do not join it under any circumstances.
This place is only suitable as a stepping stone; if you find something better, leave as soon as possible.

I only recently learned that websites like this exist. Although I have no particular interest in manipulating reviews, the company has taken care of me for a long time since I entered the workforce after completing my military service. I worked my way up from a junior employee to a manager, and all I can feel is gratitude.
There will inevitably be pressure at work. It would be a lie to say that I have never complained about the company, but no matter where you work, there will always be pressure. If I cannot withstand it, that means I lack the ability. If I lack the ability to handle pressure, things will be the same wherever I work in the future, so I still need to reflect on and improve myself first. The company has also given me room to take the initiative and carry things out. Looking at it from another angle now, I feel that the source of what needs to be improved still lies with me. Unless I think I am perfect—but people who are perfect should start their own businesses and become the boss. If someone thinks the boss of this company is imperfect, then I really do not know what qualification someone who cannot even be a boss has to write a whole bunch of negative reviews.
My EQ is indeed not very good. There is no need to pay attention to those negative reviews. The company needs to be led by the boss.
None
The performance pressure is very high, and things are handled extremely slowly. The company offers no benefits, and you shouldn’t expect much of a promotion system here.
1. Everyone gets along well with their colleagues, and there is no backstabbing or office politics. I feel happy at work.
2. In addition to the base salary, you can also earn bonuses as long as you make sales efforts.
3. The company follows the Labor Standards Act. Overtime pay is provided for any overtime worked, and it is calculated in accordance with the Labor Standards Act.
There are currently no employee travel benefits.
Suitable for fresh graduates entering the workforce; those with little experience can come here to learn (including how to develop the ability to let furious desk-pounding and shouting go in one ear and out the other).
If you don't have tremendous courage, please don't seek your own demise.
After thinking about it carefully… there really aren’t any QQ, and they’re even forcing us to write positive reviews~~~ Wouldn’t it be better to face the problems head-on? Sob sob sob
Everything is a drawback. Even the company itself can’t stand its own products, and now they want us to lie and write reviews. I’ve decided that running away is the best strategy.
Excluding the boss, it’s a pretty good company.
The boss is indeed capable, but has poor emotional control, a bad temper, and is moody and unpredictable. Swearing is an everyday occurrence, while angry outbursts, yelling, pounding on desks, and other venting and berating—both actions and sounds—can easily be heard throughout the entire office.
There’s no need to say more; let’s look at some objective data. With an astonishingly high turnover rate in which an entire cohort of employees leaves each year—and this happens year after year (not even counting the frontline store service staff, whose turnover is even higher)—what do you think the evaluation should be?
All my colleagues are very easy to get along with. At first, I was very nervous when dealing with customers, but it was quite fun and I learned a lot.
The supervisor sometimes looks quite fierce, but if I ask her questions, she also does her best to help me find the answers.
The uniform is a bit hot.
Definitely, no.
All of it—and you even have to go against your conscience and write a positive review. So ridiculous~~ We're all going to hell~~~
None at all~ Numerous former employees have said: There’s no point in making the reviews look good, because then they wouldn’t be factual. You might as well properly face the environment you’re in now—why make you write nice things against your conscience? ^^ It’s really tough.
The entire company is a drawback—run while you can~~~
An honest company that fully complies with the Labor Standards Act and provides all required protections.
Colleagues get along harmoniously and are always the first to lend a helping hand. You can learn about a wide range of things here; it’s a company where you can build your capabilities.
The commute is relatively long and inconvenient
The air conditioning is not strong enough
1. The department manager is very good and takes excellent care of their team members.
2. Stable working hours (two-day weekend).
3. Colleagues get along well.
1. The elevator is more difficult to wait for on the 20th floor.
2. Parking spaces are difficult to find in the commercial building.
None
The boss’s mood is different every day. When things are going well, anything is easy to discuss; when things are not going well, everything is considered bad. There are also irresponsible managers. Many employees have left because they were angered by the managers and the boss, resulting in the loss of a lot of talent.
None
What is formally offered differs from what was said during the interview. They think employees are just busy doing nothing every day, dislike employees leaving after receiving their year-end bonuses, yet like telling employees to leave at any time!
The boss's temper is sometimes good and sometimes bad. After working there for over a year, nearly all of the 20 colleagues I got to know there have since left. The turnover rate is therefore easy to imagine.
The company is very poorly planned and does not value its employees. The turnover rate is extremely high, which gives you an idea of what kind of company it is.
The boss is moody, responsibilities are poorly defined, and the company has high turnover.
